West Horsley Place Trust

Join us in the evolving story of West Horsley Place; breathing new life and purpose into an ancient Grade I listed manor house and 380-acre estate that has been in private ownership for nearly a thousand years. We are working in collaboration with our local community and partner organisations to explore how a historic house, garden and estate can meet the needs and aspirations of 21st-century society, with the arts, history, wellbeing and nature at its heart. Thanks to the generosity and vision of Bamber and Christina Gascoigne's original gift, West Horsley Place will be open to all. The West Horsley Place Trust is a heritage charity that wants to make a difference to others while creating a sustainable future for this beautiful and neglected treasure. Maintaining and conserving the buildings and the pursuit of creativity and learning will take place side by side. We are working on the Grade I listed manor house and Grade II listed Place Farm to allow us to open them to all and remove West Horsley Place from Historic England's 'Heritage At Risk register'. We are exploring our built and natural heritage through arts and culture, developing a range of learning programmes and events for our local and wider communities. We are creating a plan for the future without barriers, inclusive, and devoted from the start to diversity and access, and dedicated to the promotion of health and wellbeing to those in society whom West Horsley Place can benefit.
